Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You must've broke me fall in love
When the boys used to say, you look better in the dark
But now they keep on, they learned, it's good
To be somewhere in the dark with you
[Verse 2]
The teachers would ask a question
And you would always raise your hand
But somehow, you never got your turn
My eyes would fill with water, inside I'd burn, whoa, yes indeed
[Verse 3]
Homely girl, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh, homely girl
Homely girl, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh, homely girl
[Verse 4]
There was a boy you used to sit beside
He'd like to hold that place his whole life though
Oh, you were beautiful to me
You had a heart no one could ever see, whoa, yes, you did
[Verse 5]
Homely girl, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh, homely girl
I was the only one who offered to carry your books
I took all the stares and laughter, the dirty looks
[Verse 6]
But I saw there what they see now
They all wanna ask you for a date
They don't know how
They don't know how
[Verse 7]
Homely girl, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh, homely girl
Homely girl, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh, homely girl
[Verse 8]
Ah-ah, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh, homely girl
Ah-ah, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh, homely girl
[Verse 9]
Ah-ah, you used to be so lonely
You're a beautiful woman, oh, homely girl
